 North Goes South:

SHUVINAI ASHOONA’S REPOSITIONING OF INUIT ART

 

 

Inuit art is seldom part of the contemporary art canon. Shuvinai Ashoona’s work breaks this rule, and it has been exhibited internationally, including in Switzerland and Australia. This talk, featuring Nancy Campbell, author of the new book Shuvinai Ashoona: Life & Work in conversation with Sara Angel, director of the Art Canada Institute, investigates the remarkable trajectory of this singular artist.

 

 

Thursday, February 23, 2017, at 7:00 PM 
Esker Foundation, 4th Floor, 1011 — 9th Avenue S.E.
Calgary, Alberta

 

Free admission. RSVP at: eskerfoundation-angelcampbell.eventbrite.ca.
